I was thinking that I heard this was a thing at one time. I'd love to get my hands on a Vanguard for my PPS Classic but obviously there are non on the market these days. Am I remembering correctly or was it a dream?

Thanks Tom. I remember not long ago RCS found some stock of the j-frame Vanguard and sold them on their website but they were gone by the time I found it. I've never tried the Vanguard and thought maybe it would be beneficial with these small guns. At least something to try.

Tom is correct. Kydex for the PPS, J-Frame and Shield for TPI members probably 5 years ago.
I was surprised how poorly the Vanguard concealed the 43 compared to a George. The Vanguard is now a spare to take in case a primary breaks.
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
The Vanguard for the original PPS is a great little holster. It was a perfect match between pistol and gun.
My daughter has my VG2 now (since I don't run the PPS anymore) and it works great in the VG1 configuration for current women fashions.
Raven also did a run of M&P holsters for some TPI folks years before they had them in normal production. Still have one of them too even though my M&P is gone!

If you're looking for something in the style of the original Vanguard, you might check out Dale Fricke's Zacchaeus. Years ago I bought one for my PPS with the intent of using it for extra trigger guard protection in a SmartCarry. The profile of the little "hook" in front of the trigger guard didn't fit well with the shape of the SmartCarry pocket and I never got around to asking him to make a custom one, but my recollection is that it fit well and snapped on very solidly.
Are there any other holster makers that make something like a Vanguard who has the PPS Classic as an option?
I like the Zacchaeus but am looking for something with a belt loop (RCS hook preferably or soft loop).
